I'm quite aware. More than half the world doesn't.
Unless the law otherwise restricts consumer rights in a particular part of the world, there is little benefit to establishing region specific policies when universal policies work just as well.
If you're speaking about Internet access, well speak to your telcos. The only people that can improve the situation is to talk to local telcos and let them know what you want. Trust me, I grew up in a rural town, I spent hours writing companies begging for a local modem bank so I could access national services with a local call. You're talking to a guy who racked up $12,000 in long distance fees in less than three months.
On top of that I got 1200bps for a download/upload speed. I know what life in the slow lane is like. I've also online gamed in the console generation with Xbox LIVE on 128Kbps (ISDN) and 1Mbps/256Kbps broadband cable connection.
If they don't bring reliable, high-speed Internet to where every you live, move to a bigger city. That's what I did. Then I went to work for an Internet Service Provider. If moving to a bigger city doesn't work, then move country? I suppose priorities here, as the Internet is important to me.
